Chapter 6 : Watching part 2
( Forest of Death)
Just as she promised she created a seal paper and added a drop of hers and Naruto's blood to successfully create a barrier she couldn't allow those Anbu coming to her dark forbidden side of the forest of death which is most likely her territory.
Now seeing him awake she turned her servant Shiro-Hebi into a Necklace a snake-like Necklace and put it around his neck so that way she could see all of what's going on from her crystal ball.
She knows he has to go to the Academy.
Seeing him all awake she tells him.
"Time for you to head to the academy young uzumaki learn a you can. The necklace is something I want you to wear, I will tell you a little secret once you return by sun down." She said seeing him look at the snake-like necklace then looked up at her nodding as he went on his way to the Academy.
While he left she went to go set up the barrier placing it on a dead tree as it activated creating a giant wide invisible barrier, Nothing can break her barrier, not even a seals master can bypass her barrier.
Smiling she decided to return to her cave, she dared those Anbu or shinobi's to try getting through her barrier.
( Hokage Tower)
It was the afternoon as he waited and waited for his Anbu to return with Naruto he waited for them yesterday and they haven't returned something was not right..
He headed over to his Crystal ball and saw that Naruto looked safe and sound at the Academy, frowning he wondered why didn't his Anbu return and report to him about the white snake and Naruto. Something was definitely not right and he felt like he needs to see Naruto and ask him what did he see in the forest of death and why is a white snake following him.
"Neko!" he called out.
"Yes, Hokage-Sama?" She said.
"In an hour I want you to bring Naruto to me." He commanded as she nodded Then left.
(With Naruto)
An hour passed as the academy is over before he could try getting some ramen, Neko had appeared beside him.
"Naruto-san, Hokage-sama would like to see you." She said as he looked up at her taking her hand as she led him back to the Hokage Tower.
Little did they know the snake necklace red eyes gleamed
(Kankandara's lair)
She watched from her crystal ball seeing the Anbu with a cat mask was taking him to this Hokage? There's another Hokage? Well she has an opportunity to see what this Hokage is like.
(Hokage Tower)
Sitting at his desk he eyed the boy who is sitting across from him.
"Naruto how are you doing?" he asked smoking his pipe
"I'm doing fine Ji-san. Why ask?" He asked back
"Naruto I'm only going to ask once, in the forest of death did you see anything?" He said seriously as the boy remained silent, not sure what to tell him.
"No?" Naruto replied seeing Hiruzen raise a brow.
"Are you Sure? You didn't see anything at all in the forest?" He questioned.
(Kankandara's lair)
She hissed loudly already not liking the Sandaime Hokage he's trying to make Naruto reveal her.
( Hokage Office)
"No..." The boy lied keeping his promise to Lady Aoi to not reveal her
Hiruzen eyed the boy searching to see if the boy was lying but couldn't see through it.
"Hmm... Another question can I ask Naruto?" He asked
"Yes?" he answered
"Have you seen any loose snakes? Following you?" He asked seeing Naruto shake his head.
"Snakes? I haven't seen any snakes Ji-san." Naruto said with the Hokage frown a bit rubbing his chin.
"Hmm well I just wanted to make sure if you were okay Naruto I noticed a few days ago you haven't been acting like yourself usually." He said in concern
"I'm fine Ji-san" He said
The Sandaime continued to watch as he closed his eyes sighing.
"Very Well Naruto that was all I wanted to know" He said seeing the boy get up
"So I can go?" He asked as the old man nodded
He watched the boy leave his office yet he still don't know why was this was bothering him.
"Neko" He called out as she appeared besides him.
"Yes Hokage-sama?" She asked
"Locate Turtle and Slug, they haven't reported back to me. I want you, Anko and a squad of Anbu to check the forest of death there's something in there and whatever it is Naruto won't tell me about." He commanded seeing her nod.
"As you wish Hokage-sama," She said going to do as told
He frowned after she left he had a feeling in his gut that Naruto saw something in that forest and is afraid to tell him about it.
( Kankandara's lair)
It seems that she's going to have to be more careful about this Third Hokage she can't risk Naruto being under his watch like that she needs to disguise herself as a human as quickly as possible so she can be around Naruto more and claim him there was something she didn't like about the Sandaime and whatever it was she was going to find out.
Coiling her snake body she decided to wait for naruto at sundown and reveal Shiro-Hebi to him.
